Sam Darnold

Very very rarely does a quarterback who plays bad for their first 3 seasons and goes to a new team and become great. At least Drew Brees was competent in San Diego. Usually it's because that player had a lack of opportunities, but Darnold just didn't get it done with tons of them

Its easy to make excuses for him since he plays for Jets, and to blame the coaching and players around him, but stats like this make me nervous.

 

It's why I don't really buy the Jets sticking with him. If the right QB is there, I think they draft him. But maybe sticking with Darnold is an option if the right QB isn't there.

Or... then again, maybe Gase really is just THAT atrocious. If Darnold bounces back to prove to be a quality starting QB, Gase should probably never work in football again.

I don't think he's had much of a chance and we've already seen another QB who disappointed under Gase thrive once out from under Gase. The Jets are rumored to be leaning toward keeping him anyway.

Not if they get Watson.

Stafford being on that list doesn't make me too happy either if we are really considering him.  If a QB doesn't play well under the best situation (clean pocket) he has to bare some of the responsibility of not playing well and isn't all the coaches' fault.

Expecting a QB to be something(better) that he hasn't been in the past is how in ended up with Teddy. 

We need to quit trying to find the bargains.  Either go after Watson or draft one in the first round (trade up if needed).

    • Nah, I thought of a few other options, but I wanted it to be a case of "forced to choose, would you say it was better or worse"? I know there are some other things to take into consideration, but just a snapshot of the roster last year and looking strictly at who we lost, kept, and obtained what does your gut say?
    • One thing that you probably didn't notice is that Florio says "Jadeveon" incorrectly (like 90 percent of people) and Simms says it correctly.
    • This is where we go awry every year with Fitterer and Hurney post round 1. In the 2020 draft, Lamb, Jefferson, Higgins and Pittman were the 3rd, 5th, 6th and 7th WRs. YGM and Chaisson were the 2nd and 3rd edges behind Chase Young. When you are staring at super deep classes, it’s not as simple as you mentioned. TE2 last year was La Porta. That’s fine because TEs were deep. This year you are likely passing on a couple WRs who will become a Higgins, Pittman or even Jefferson for a Howard or Njoku. Drafting the best guys at weak positions is not equivalent to the second tier guys at deep positions. You can get lucky but we’ve fuged up before like going with TMJ over Humphrey in a shallow WR class (handful of top talent) and a deep OL group with tons of starters after TMJ and after a long snapper too.
